At Xylem, we understand the unique challenges associated with working in natural fresh water environments such as rivers, streams, lakes, reservoirs, springs, and groundwater. Source water is often affected by natural disasters, as well as industrial and agricultural practices, and construction projects. To address these challenges, we offer support to environmental engineers, manufacturers and construction crews to establish baseline water quality monitoring, compliance with local regulations and water treatment when quality improvement is necessary. We are committed to maintaining and improving the quality of source water through our expertise in water quality monitoring and remediation.

Ace Services, a farm implement manufacturing company contaminated the groundwater from inappropriate discharge of their chroming process. The company has since gone out of business and the project is now part of an EPA Superfund Cleanup.
